L.S.,

I am happy to announce a new version of wxHaskell. This version binds to  
wxWidgets 2.9 [0].


What is it?
-----------
wxHaskell is a portable and native GUI library for Haskell. The goal of  
the project is to provide an industrial strength GUI library for Haskell,  
but without the burden of developing (and maintaining) one ourselves.

wxHaskell is therefore built on top of wxWidgets – a comprehensive C++  
library that is portable across all major GUI platforms; including GTK,  
Windows, X11, and MacOS X. Furthermore, it is a mature library (in  
development since 1992) that supports a wide range of widgets with the  
native look-and-feel.


What's new?
-----------
  - Added functionality: wxGrid: cell spans, cell renderers (numeric, auto  
string wrapping),
    wxScrolledWindow, wxSplitterWindow
  - Reanimated wxToggleButton, added wxBitmapToggleButton
  - Solved problem with spaces in pathnames (installation procedure,  
Windows)
  - Increased max version of dependencies
  - The external preprocessor (CPP) is now used
  - The presence of the wx-config executable is checked at installation time
  - The bitness of the wxWidgets dynamic libraries is compared to the  
bitness of the wxHaskell libraries
    to generate, at installation time; a warning is given when the bitness  
is incompatible
  - Documentation improvements
  - Bugs fixed
